Beer Palace

Ontario recently went wet to the extent of 4.4% alcohol.

Twenty miles from the Ohio shore, in Lake Erie, is Pelee Island, Ontario. It is having a real-estate boom. One J. A. Baxter and the Manhattan financial firm of Mills Mover & Co. announced plans for "the greatest pleasure resort within easy reach of the U. S." Work on the Pelee Island hotel of 350 rooms is to be started at once. Golf links, tennis courts, bathing beaches, 4.4% beer and wine will be there. Still another diversion was proposed. Said Mr. Baxter: "This Monte Carlo stuff is the bunk. Gambling is against the laws of Ontario. There will be a dancing casino, but not a roulette establishment."
